Spin-wave Resonance in Arrays of Nanoscale Synthetic-antiferromagnets

• The study concerns dynamics of standing spin waves in arrays of sub-100 nm elliptic synthetic-antiferromagnet (SAF) nanodisks. We performed a detailed ferromagnetic resonance analysis in conjunction with micro magnetic modeling to find out several prominent traits of such systems. One broad line is shown to be the sole resonant response for a SAF of the considered sizes. We demonstrate that this mode is degenerated, and its excitation map resembles a superposition of in-center and edge-type oscillations. We also show how this hybrid excitation leads to almost twofold enhancement in the shape-induced anisotropy of the mode.
